The Learning Hub is officially open!

Thank you to everyone who has helped make the new Learning Hub a reality.

View our timelapse video of the ten month build and see some of the many activities that took place to help raise over £3.2m.
The Design and Construction Team handed over the Learning Hub to Harmeny this autumn.

A space to thrive

The vision of Loader Monteith Architects, with SJ Studio Architects has been brought to life through the hard work of our contractors, Thomas Johnstone Ltd and their team. The ten month build dealt with snow, freezing temperatures and the wettest November on record but the team at Thomas Johnstone Ltd continued throughout with a smile on their face and became part of the Harmeny community.

The Learning Hub is now officially open!

The new Learning Hub was officially opened by Fraser McKinlay, Chief Executive of The Promise Scotland on Friday 24th November. The opening celebrated the incredible efforts of all our supporters who have helped raise over £3.2 million.

Neil Squires, Harmeny’s Chief Executive, Jennifer Scott, Chair of the Board of Trustees, Allan Cook MBE, Chair of Harmeny’s Fundraising Development Group and Fraser McKinlay all spoke at the event and expressed their thanks to the many people and organisations that have worked together to complete the build of our new learning facilities.

MSPs Sue Webber, Gordon Macdonald and Joanna Cherry joined the celebrations.

The event was also attended by many of our donors and funders, local MSPs and representatives from across the care and education sector, with guests getting a look around our new classrooms and vocational spaces.

Rebuilding lives, reshaping futures

Guests also had the chance to view our thank you windows, which display the names of many of our supporters, without whom this project would not have been possible.

Learning Hub open day

On Saturday 25 November the Learning Hub also opened to the public with visitors from the local community and further afield. The two opening events were a wonderful opportunity to thank all those involved and reflect on the Learning Hub project.
